Nomad-type-Bob, re:

<<   FWIW, I thought Phil Daniels was nervous
 enough to puddle from stage to rear exit in one
 *whoosh*. For non-initiates, the narration slowing
 down the songs could be a *good* thing because it
 helps keep the context instead of just hopping from
 single to single. Certainly he was smoother in Hyde
 Park, and it seemed to fit the show better IMO. >>

(For this and the other "singers" part...) Yeah, having a guy sitting on the
stage reading a few lines on a teleprompter, just didn't do it for me... I
saw Irish Jack at the sorta/JAE show afterwords and told him that HE should
have been up there, instead. But... 

As for the other singers... I don't think they "took away" too much (I'd
personally rather hear Pete do the "Punk" parts...), but what did they add?
Because Billy Idol delivers some bags to the stage, does this make that
noteworthy? If a "stage" presentation is what Pete wanted, I think a better
use of the overhead screen would have been more effective. This was like it
did too little, so there was no "effective" point... 

On the other hand, I still contend "Psychoderelict" is brilliant. That had
the right combination of "actors", etc and I thought it worked well... 

>>Hope Fang will follow up &
let us know about that, and also whether the rumor
about Joe Lynn Turner (former Rainbow/Deep Purple/
Yngwie Malmsteen) and the JAE band has some lasting 
substance?

I don't think I'm quite ready to post my "comments" on that one...
